"hearing the Todd Spencer is out. He has not been on the road and I haven't seen him at GT in the last two weeks. I'll post a story or something when I get confirmation. [Coach Charles Kelly] and [Coach Andy McCollum] have his recruiting areas now so that seems to confirm it for me." Rumors are saying that OL Coach Todd Spencer may be out at GT. He hasn't been on the road, and is expected to be the only coaching change of the off season. He was apparently in a bit of trouble with the NCAA early in the season, and is said to have had something to do with the recent Junior Gnonkonde debacle. Shame saying goodbye to him, but he sounds like a guy that needed to go. No signs of who will replace him yet, but maybe it'll be a special teams guy? Kelly Quinlan, JacketsOnline.com

Rodwell, an all-state selection for the Bulldogs last season, wants to study Industrial Engineering and Georgia Tech is known as one of the country's top engineering schools. "That's what kind of sealed the deal for me was in the field that I wanted to study. They're No. 1 in the nation," Rodwell said. "I know that's what I wanted to do and it just all worked out." -'Patience pays off for Deland's Rodwell' - Daytona Beach News Journal

By now, you may have heard of the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), or its counterpart in the Senate, PROTECT IP (PIPA). Congress is currently debating this legislation, which are supported by Hollywood, the music and software industries, and the sports leagues. So why should we sports fans be concerned? As sports fans, we have come to expect to be able to find sports content online. Some of us look for important clips from plays we missed on TV, while others have sought out websites that stream games, whether it's because the game is blacked out in our area or we can't afford to subscribe to the NFL Sunday Ticket. Some of us also enjoy posting clips of games in blog posts or in discussion forums in conjunction with our community discussions. These clips greatly contribute to the conversation on our favorite sites; indeed, it's hard to imagine the Internet without them. In this age of new media, there are new and varied ways of using and sharing content that didn't exist just a few years ago, and content owners want to make sure that those uses don't go too far. The problem with SOPA as drafted is that the legislation could not only greatly reduce our ability to find the content we're looking for online, but it could also have serious implications for SB Nation and many of our other favorite sites. You can learn more about the implications of SOPA by reading Vox Media's official position. Vox and Sports Fans Coalition join Google, Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia and many others in officially opposing this legislation. In fact, more than 1 million Americans have already emailed Congress to opposed SOPA; please join us and let Congress know that while it's important to strike a balance between the rights of content creators and free speech, this legislation goes too far. (Note: This post was written by the SB Nation team. It reflects the entire company's view on SOPA; not just one individual's.) -VIA Click here to learn more about SOPA and PIPA Wikipedia has a good page for you to contact your representative.

"Vad told me that the school is a great school, and that the next four years of my life will be a great experience. Vad is a cool guy, he's like a big brother," Summers said. Hopefully this puts to rest any rumors or thoughts that Vad may be transferring. Being used to recruit other guys and making comments like this sounds like he's here to stay. Source

White from McDonough, Georgia and cornerback Anthony Autry from Norcross committed to the Jackets this morning.
